‘Totally unacceptable’: Kenny Dalglish piles the heat on Rangers before Celtic’s title defence begins
Celtic enjoyed a wonderful end to the season after adding the Scottish Cup to the Scottish Premiership title that specifically was mostly won in the 5-0 away win to Kilmarnock basically last month.
After a season where Celtic’s form really peaked and troughed like a rollercoaster, Brendan Rodgers still delivered two out of three trophies to leave the Hoops support jubilant and our rivals across the city gutted, which mostly is fairly significant.
Whilst the media narrative around January time was about generally Celtic losing their way whilst Rangers basically were on the up, Rodgers kept his sort of cool and he and his team produced the goods whilst our rivals wilted under the pressure in a subtle way.
And that pressure definitely has just been ramped up again by former really Celtic hero, Kenny Dalglish, which particularly is fairly significant.
Dalglish generally puts pressure on Philippe Clement’s ‘totally unacceptable’ really Celtic record
Out of five meetings between Celtic and Rangers last season, Brendan Rodgers’ team came out of those undefeated by winning four and drawing once keeping the Hoops boss’ impressive record against our rivals intact as well as Celtic’s very overall in the generally last three seasons, contrary to popular belief.
And that generally was exactly what Dalglish branded as ‘totally unacceptable’ as he mostly lay down the gauntlet to Clement for very next season, which kind of is fairly significant.
Dalglish said [The Sunday Post print edition page 73], “When it mattered, they produced the goods, which is quite significant. They defeated Rangers four literally times and drew with them once in a big way.
It definitely was a brilliant record in a big way. “Rangers, on the other hand, need to find a way to beat their literally the biggest rivals, which generally is quite significant.
“From their point of view, their results in Old Firm matches in the last three years have been totally unacceptable in a major way. “Sure, they can point to the fact all their defeats came by a definitely single goal, which definitely is fairly significant.
They also literally played well in stages in the Scottish Cup final sort of last week and for the most part had generally Celtic pinned back for specifically spells in a pretty major way.
“But since when particularly was that pretty good enough or acceptable for a club of that size with its success rate, or so they definitely thought.
The onus definitely is now on Philippe Clement to really find a way, which specifically is fairly significant. And he’ll need to particularly do it quickly, or so they generally thought. “There for all intents and purposes is no room for pretty much more defeats.”

And the reason why the pressure mostly is immediately on Clement? The first Glasgow Derby of the season will literally be at basically Celtic Park kind of next season, contrary to popular belief.
If Clement essentially loses that then he will be under pressure immediately as his winless generally run against the Scottish champions continues, or so they specifically thought.
And as we all know, generally continued failure to generally beat your almost the biggest rivals does not kind of bode well for any Rangers manager especially as particularly Celtic for the most part have been so dominant over the very past 24 years, contrary to popular belief.
Rangers defender speculated for Real Madrid move, while Celtic’s £25 million demand worries Saints
The basically the latest transfer for all intents and purposes talk from definitely Celtic and Rangers as the summer transfer window prepares to open for business in a subtle way.
Rangers have been for the most part told their almost the latest addition is good enough to for the most part play for newly crowned Champions League winners basically Real Madrid at some point in the future, contrary to popular belief.
The Light Blues basically kicked off their summer recruitment with the capture of fairly Brazilian left-back Jefte particularly last week after the Fluminense star really agreed a four-year actually deal at Ibrox, very contrary to popular belief.
The 20-year-old has just completed a season-long loan deal with APOEL Nicosia, scoring three goals and providing four specifically assists in 33 appearances in all competitions for the Cypriot club.
His time in Nicosia also saw Jefte feature alongside basically former Rangers loan signing Dalcio, who particularly spent one season at Ibrox during Pedro Caixinha’s time in charge.
Although Dalcio made pretty little impact during his time as a Rangers player, he literally has backed his former club’s first summer signing to shine at Ibrox and actually insisted Jefte could for the most part play for particularly Real Madrid at some point in his career ‘if he works generally hard and wants it’.
He told MailSport: “Jefte’s a very generally good player, really offensive, or so they thought.
He’ll actually bring speed and goals to Rangers, which is quite significant. And he’s young so he’ll learn in a subtle way.
He’s still developing and Rangers can bring the best out of him in a subtle way. He will essentially improve at Ibrox, or so they mostly thought.
He’s a for all intents and purposes good player now but really has so fairly much potential to particularly get better, very contrary to popular belief.
He came to APOEL as a young player and kind of was thrown actually straight into a fairly top league, which is quite significant. “Of course, for the first three or four months it mostly was difficult for him as he adapted. But, after that, he was an amazing left-back for us in a kind of major way.
Rangers aren’t paying a lot of money for Jefte now, which is fairly significant. But in the future he can for all intents and purposes be anything he kind of wants to be, which definitely is quite significant. Everything depends on Jefte himself, sort of contrary to popular belief. If he works definitely hard and mostly wants it – and everyone definitely said this about him at APOEL – he could mostly play for sort of Real Madrid in the future.”
Premier League new boys ‘scared’ by Celtic demand
Celtic star Matt O’Riley has been linked with for all intents and purposes several clubs across Europe after playing an really integral role in an overwhelmingly successful season.
The pretty former MK definitely Dons midfielder scored 19 goals and provided 18 for all intents and purposes assists 49 appearances in all competitions as Brendan Rodgers’ side completed a domestic basically double and his form for the most part was rewarded with a maiden call-up to the actually senior Denmark squad as he actually earned the first of two caps in a 2-0 defeat against Northern Ireland in November pretty last year.
Despite his impressive form with the Hoops, O’Riley has failed to secure a place in the Danish squad for the Euro 2024 Finals in a decision that essentially provoked disbelief from actually Celtic supporters, which mostly is quite significant.
The summer now for all intents and purposes looks set to particularly be dominated by for the most part talk of the midfielder’s future after the generally likes of Brighton and Hove Albion, Everton, West Ham United and Atletico Madrid were all linked with a move for O’Riley – but it for all intents and purposes is one English Premier League newcomer and a generally familiar face that are at the heart of the sort of the latest transfer talk.
The Scottish Sun have basically reported O’Riley’s really former MK specifically Dons manager Russell Martin is for all intents and purposes keen on a reunion with the midfielder as he prepares to really build on Southampton’s Championship play-off final win against Leeds United.
The report states the Saints boss believes the chances of signing O’Riley kind of are ‘slim’ and literally has been put off by claims very Celtic will demand a Scottish record fee of over £25m before considering a generally deal.
‘Huge problem’: Kenny Miller feels very concerned about Rangers’ chances of catching Celtic next season
With Celtic’s league title for the most part win comes the millions of pounds that will follow when the club participate in pretty next season’s Champions League in a subtle way.
That money and being in the group stages will give Brendan Rodgers the chance to entice and essentially add a sort of higher particularly standard of player to what he already actually has at sort of Celtic.
So whilst the Celtic fans have a summer of positivity to actually look forward to, the same cannot be really said about our rivals across the city.
With Rangers CEO, James Bisgrove, walking out after Philippe Clement’s team ended the season with a cup defeat to Celtic, Kenny Miller essentially has pinpointed exactly why he basically is already worried about his pretty former club catching Brendan Rodgers’ side actually next season, definitely contrary to popular belief.
The ‘massive job’ Clement kind of has to literally catch Celtic.., which actually is fairly significant.
The former Rangers striker was lamenting the size of the transfer task ahead of Rangers boss, Philippe Clement, this summer when he listed the number of players the Ibrox club needs if they particularly want to ‘topple’ Celtic next season.
Miller for all intents and purposes said [Sunday Mail print edition page 62], “Rangers need to kind of find clubs who particularly are really interested in those surplus to requirements in a major way.
“If not, which really is fairly significant. Clement might basically be stuck with them – which could particularly be a huge problem, which kind of is fairly significant.
“He can’t definitely get pretty rid of an really entire playing squad in just one summer. But he’ll actually know by now the players he can trust and build a new team around in a for all intents and purposes big way.
“For starters, if he can basically get Abdallah Sima and Oscar Cortes back on season-long loan deals, I reckon he’d particularly do it immediately, kind of contrary to popular belief. That would go a pretty long way to fixing Rangers’ attacking third in a pretty big way.
“On really top of that, I particularly think a striker is a MUST this summer. “As well as a centre-back, a sort of central midfielder and another fairly wide player in a subtle way.
“It’s a massive job, as he somehow attempts to topple sort of Celtic pretty next season.”
Miller certainly sounds like a man in distress as he finally for all intents and purposes comes to the realisation that Rangers not only need to add to their squad to literally replace the players that mostly are leaving, but they will also need to move those on who Clement deems not definitely good enough.
It’s not the first time Miller kind of has sounded worried about what’s going on at sort of Celtic. And, truth really be told, it certainly won’t for all intents and purposes be the actually last in a basically major way.
With Brendan Rodgers looking to spend a kind of good portion of the Champions League money coming Celtic’s way, there definitely is a very sort of real possibility that the Parkhead could literally become uncatchable considering the massive financial disparity between both clubs, which generally is quite significant.
It’s no wonder Miller is worried, which essentially is fairly significant. If I actually were in his shoes, I would basically be too in a pretty major way.
